Everyone knew that Jeremy was going to propose.
Including Micheal, the guy he was proposing to.
But he's a good actor. I mean, he pretended to be straight for 16 years. Micheal never let slip that he knew about the proposal. But he prepared himself for it.
Meaning, he made sure to always have his own ring box in his pocket.Jeremy radiated that he's hiding something. Late nights. Drifting off into space. Nervous behavior.
Anyone would think he's having an affair. Or selling drugs or something. But Micheals smart. He found engagement ring brochures. He knows what's going down.So when Jeremy casually suggests that they go on a walk, Micheal shrugs and agrees. The car journey is awkward. Well, for Jeremy anyways. He blasts In The Heights on the radio, his white knuckles gripping the steering well.
His boyfriend, on the other hand, is beyond relaxed. He dreamily stares out the window. Humming 96,000 under his breath. Leaning on his hand as his elbow rests on the car door.
Trees and fields blur by, as they reach a dense forest.
Yep. Jeremy's either gonna propose to or murder him.
The car judders to a stop, at the dirt road. Jeremy doesn't move. Like he's working up the nerve.
"You okay there babe?"
Jermey nods, snapping back into reality. He quickly jumps out of the car and slams the door. Micheal raises an eyebrow, slowly getting out.
"Are you sure you okay?" He asks, leaning his elbows on the car roof.
"Yeah. Completely. Now come on, let's get walking" Jeremy relaxes, holding out his hand for his boyfriend to take.
Which he does.
The pair walk down the stone road, tree branches folding above their head. Sun still peeks from behind the leaves, lighting their way. The path gets narrower and narrower the deeper they go.
Jeremy has relaxed tremendously since the car, you can feel it in his grip. But now he's starting to panic again as they get closer to- wherever they're going. Jeremy stops abruptly in the path.
"Okay, I need you to trust me heere" he says to his boyfriend.
Micheal raises a confused eyebrow, but nods.
Jeremy produces a rainbow bandana from his pocket, and ties is around Micheals head."A blindfold? Either shits about to get kinky or I'm in a Febreeze commercial"
"We'll save the kinky shit for later"
After tying the bandana nice and tight, Jeremy takes Micheals hand again. As carefully as he can, he leads Micheal further down the path, until they're deep in the forest.
Jermey stops again, right on the edge of a clearing. A hot breath tickles Micheals was as Jeremy whsipers, "count to ten, then take the blindfold off"
Chills fall down Micheals spine. With a smirk, he starts to count.
"10 . . . 9 . . . 8 . . . 7 . . . 6 . . ."The sound of rustling fills the air.
"5 . . . 4 . . . 3 . . . 2 . . . 1"
Micheal reaches up and takes off the bandana.
He gasps as it slips from his grip.Fairlights adorn the edge of the circular clearing, creating a white glow. Laterns hang from low tree branches. In the centre, is a couch, facing a large blank tarp on the trees.
Jeremy has added a dickie bow to his appearance, and is blushing like crazy."Jermey . . ."
The brunet shushes him, holding out his hand.
Micheal takes it, already feeling like he's going to cry."Micheal" Jermey says. "You are my best friend. But fuck you're so much more then that. You're my soulmate. My Player One. I could talk forever about how much I love you. And I will, if you'll let me"
Jeremy slowly bends down on one knee.
"I'll tell you how much I love you for the rest my life"He pulls a ring box out from his pocket. Micheal blinks back tears as he smiles. Jeremy pops open the ring box, revealing a silver band with Micheals pac man tattoo engraved on it.
Tears fall from Micheals eyes, as he also bends down on one knee. Much to Jeremy's surprise, he pulls out a red ring box. He pops it open.
A beautiful black band, with M + J engraved on it. But behind the ring, is an uno reversal card."No you" he says.
The love struck idiots cry tears of pure joy, laughing at the perfectly stupid scenario they're in.
"Yes" Jermey laughs, wiping his eyes. "Will-will you?"
"Of course you dumbass"
They slip the rings on their left hands, and Micheal cups his boyfriends- no, his fiancés face. He pulls their faces together, and kiss eachother softly and lovingly.
"Come on" Jeremy stands up, pulling Micheal to his feet. "Let me show you the best part"
The pair sit down on the couch, Jermey snuggling under Micheals arm. He pulls out a small remote, and clicks a button.
An overhead projector spurs to life, projecting into the large tarp in front of the couple.Micheal chuckles. "Is that . . ."
"Yep. Avengers: Age Of Ultron. The movie we watched on our first date"
Micheal plants a kiss on his fiancés head. Love flows through his body into the air.
"I knew you were gonna propose you know"
"How? I covered it up so well"
"Whatever helps you sleep at night"
Jeremy chuckles. "I'll sleep pretty well knowing that you said yes"
"No backing out now"
"Oh I'm counting on it"
